14L G40 wheatbeer (Axis) vs Boldfresh (Allies +15)

[boldfresh]

i also can’t afford this hit rate on my usa bombers!!! they are dropping like flies!  :lol:

[boldfresh]

alright, i agree china is a mess - i do not play china well, and the pacific is often my weakness.  i will consolidate the chinese in kiangsi.

[boldfresh]

go ahead - if i still don’t see it, then just kill me.  gonna leave 12 ftrs west and shuffle china up.

i guess the bulk of my chinese need to remain in kiangsi until the japanese get so huge then can kill this china stack… crazy stuff.

[boldfresh]

hang on, i think i’m going to take more usa air east……  ugh

[wheatbeer]

I need to go to bed and I have a longer than usual workday tomorrow, so there’s no rush.

Sorry to drive you crazy here.

[boldfresh]

japan is pretty much impossible to handle at this point.  but we’ve come this far, i will try.  fine - give me till tomorrow night to look it over (be torn up trying to consider your nefarious plans with a 110 ipc/turn japan).

[wheatbeer]

That map wouldn’t open for me, so I can’t tell if you caught it.

After sleeping on it, I decided I can just tell you if you want me to. I think you’ll kick yourself if you miss it since it’s pretty easy to stop.

[boldfresh]

heres the map

[wheatbeer]

Not caught. Possible you are aware and it’s intentional. Should I tell you? I don’t want to feel guilty since it’s easy to stop.

[boldfresh]

wheat, what the heck am i missing?  what theater are we talking about here?  since it is italy’s turn, i can only assume you are referring to europe?  man am i stumped

[wheatbeer]

No it’s Pacific.

Japan has 92% odds on Hawaii.

[boldfresh]

yeah just realized it - that’s funny.

[wheatbeer]

Now that you fixed China, you can technically afford to lose Hawaii again … and I thought maybe you might want to divert Japanese units from China … wasn’t sure

[boldfresh]

yeah i will fly the 4 ftrs there.  huge pacific with transports littered everwhere and me with my map zoomed in too much makes things difficult.  yeah i should put the 4 ftrs from WUS to hawaii i suppose.  it doesn’t immediately end the game and it would not be a bad move potentially - trying to bait you into the battle hoping to get lucky, BUT since you have two LL rerolls, i have to stop you from taking it.  won’t be able to stop it the following turn however.

[boldfresh]

just drop the 4 ftr from wus to hawaii and proceed.  as i said, if you didn’t have the rerolls, i would probably give you that shot, hoping to get into your air heavy.

[boldfresh]

not sure i am doing china right - i should probably just sit both stacks in the capitals this round - in fact, let me edit that as well.  i will post a map for you in a minute.

[boldfresh]

ok wheat - kill me.  :|
